Piccadilly Circus, London, circa 1954.
Creative Review has a fantastic photo gallery of the making of this Coca-Cola neon sign, which was the company’s first in Piccadilly Circus.
Looking at the photos makes me awestruck at the craftsmanship and equally mad that we no longer make things like this. If only I’d been born in another time so I could’ve experienced the golden age of neon signs… sigh.
